Energy - 11:00AM-12:00PM
Illinois’ deregulated energy market has saved businesses and residents more than $40 billion since 1997. In 2017, lawmakers revamped the energy marketplace and there is a significant energy debate ongoing at the Capitol. Zero carbon emissions. Electric vehicles. Nuclear power. Rate formulas. With manufacturers using one-third of our nation’s energy, join this panel of experts including the business community, utilities, and state government for an in-depth discussion on these key issues.
